    My 7yo's tank upgrade

    So I'm finishing up an upgrade for my zoa tank. My son, who has a beta, named 'Red Interest' (as the fish is red and seemed interested in my son as he was by the bowl in the shop), asks if he can upgrade his tank as well. I say sure. He requests $50, I tell him that if we're going to buy a...

    Kole or tomini tang

    Had a Tomini when I had my bigger tanks and its the only fish I've ever missed. In with clowns, wrasse, anthia, and misc and never had a concern. Calm cruiser, would keep algae at bay if small fronds, curious enough to come to the glass and watch what was going on, never harmed a coral, could...

    The ancient game...

    When the transfer was done. When the livestock was moved. When all was settled. I took the old reliable tank. I emptied it of the remaining water. I didn't want to leave any invert behind. So I sifted through the sand I began playing the old reefer's game... 'Is this alive? Where the H#&& did it...

    Setting up a vendor group order now in an interesting format, keep eyes open early next week. Have a few sale items myself I'll post, including a RO skimmer, Maxspect light, AI light, and an IM tank/stand combo.

    Don't drink skim mate

    Hopefully the frag had an EMT crew on it. I just shifted a tank today, finished an hour ago, have done 2 antibacterial soap washings and a vinegar bath before i touched my kids.

    WTB large frag tank

    Just drilled a 40b and have an assortment of glass bits in Brick if either of you guys need to borrow. If you order bits don't make the Mark_C rookie mistake - a 1" bulkhead will not fit through a hole drilled by a 1" bit, the bit needs to be 1 1/4" to 1 3/8" to accomodate bulkhead threads

    PVC plumbing advice please

    So, what I'm gathering as consensus is... One more question - On the return line, top left, which will be glued... The fit is pretty tight. Anyone 'glued' this with silicone? FYI I'm using a low turnover pump, maybe 400gph. Thanks again all.

    PVC plumbing advice please

    So I'm hard plumbing my first tank. I have two 1" downpipes (one is an emergency overflow) to the sump, and one 3/4" return. When you guys plumb this PVC into the bulkheads do you just silicone it and push it in tight, or do you use PVC cement and make a hard seal between the PVC pipe and...
